Vicky Barcelona
For authentic Spanish vibes and an Iberian-inspired selection of food and drinks, head to Vicky Barcelona on Budapest’s Dob Street, where a friendly Spanish-speaking staff serves toothsome Mediterranean tapas specialties, fine sangria (Spain’s traditional fruit-infused wine cocktail served in a pitcher), along with a selection of premium cocktails. DJs and live Spanish music complete the signature Vicky Barcelona ambience.
